At the moment I cannot figure out how to sidestep the situation I created with my adventurous post. If you have the ability to edit it, giver make it say something nice about rainbows and flower scents.

"T. gondii infections have the ability to change the behavior of rats and mice, making them drawn to, rather than fearful of, the scent of cats. This effect is advantageous to the parasite, which will be able to sexually reproduce if its host is eaten by a cat.[11] The infection is highly precise, as it does not affect a rat's other fears such as the fear of open spaces or of unfamiliar smelling food."

fight or flight to the max! (except in this case it was casually walking up to the cats..)

O.K.! Think about it. Cats are born homicidal maniacs. They spend 90% of their waking hours killing insects, watching other live things such as birds with desire to catch and kill, or playing as though they are catching and killing something. The other 10% is going to the toilet and rubbing their scent on their human slaves legs in order to mark the human as their property. They are said to harbor a paramecium that causes rodents to not fear them and humans to love them. They have evolved a cry that is the frequency and modulation of a newborn human baby. Other than that, they present a regal attitude and are cute (which impression may or may not be a result of the paramecium). If cats were as large as horses, we humans would be in deep trouble! Lastly, there are no good cat recipes.

Arguments against UV tattoos

UV tattoo ink is not commonly known or used, as very few varieties of UV inks are approved for use in the US. It is also many times more expensive than regular tattoo inks. Some people have had reactions to ingredients in the ink, ranging from minor itching to dermatitis. Several UV inks are suspected carcinogens and allergens and at this time, no research has been conducted into the side effects of long term exposure. Although many people who have received black light tattoos have had physical effects on the skin, any ink could cause a reaction. This can be a result of not protecting the tattoo from UV rays within 3 months of receiving the tattoo process or by using scented cremes or lotions on the tattoo area. This can damage the ink, causing it to become a normal ink color in all light. In time, it may also not glow in black lighting. Clear/blue UV inks are known to yellow or turn slightly brown with sun exposure. Color/black UV inks are known to become colored in all lighting. Therefore, it might permanently appear as a regular tattoo.

Arguments for UV tattoos

Over recent years, as the formulas for UV inks have been improved upon, it has become more common to hear reports of success with little or no reaction.
Tattoos can be mostly invisible, suitable for those who may be restricted in their choice of tattoo placement (because of their profession, for example) who can then choose to show off the tattoo under UV or Black light lighting.

They are NOT "Wiping Their Bums". Anal sacs (also called "anal glands") are two small glands just inside your pet's anus. The material secreted into these glands is thick and foul-smelling. Most animals can empty these glands voluntarily for scent marking or in self-defense (like a skunk might do). Domestic animals have largely lost their ability to empty these sacs voluntarily. Walking around and normal defecation serves to empty the glands but some animals become unable to empty their glands on their own at all. The sacs become impacted and uncomfortable. Dogs with impacted anal sacs usually scoot their rear on the ground in an attempt to empty the glands.


Phew! Thanks! To think that all these years, I believed my dog was wiping his ass on the carpet while he was actually covering it with thick and foul-smelling anal gunk! 'A load off my mind, I tell ya!...

This. These dogs aren't being funny, they're begging for help... for sweet, sweet anal sac release. If you don't want to do it yourself basically any vet/groomer will be more than happy to help you out.>> ^Intrepid:

From LiveLeak: A B.C. filmmaker says he's lucky to be alive after narrowly avoiding a grizzly attack while filming in the Robson Valley, southeast of Prince George.

Leon Lorenz, who lives in Dunster, B.C., was filming grizzly bears in a nearby valley last Monday evening when he spotted a bear and her cub.

Lorenz said he took cover behind a spruce tree so he could film the bears without disturbing them, but the mother bear picked up his scent.

She turned suddenly, he said, and looked him right in the eyes.

Then, roaring, she charged through the trees right at Lorenz.

He recalls thinking, "This is for real. This is … no bluff charge."

Lorenz set the camera down on a tripod, capturing everything on film, and grabbed his handgun with the hopes of firing a warning shot to scare the grizzly off.

Crouched behind the tree, he aimed his gun high and pulled the trigger — just as the grizzly burst through the branches of the tree, a few feet from where he was hiding.

Lorenz said the shot spooked the bear, which he estimates weighed between 400 and 500 pounds, and she ran off with her cub.

"I knew if I would have run, I wouldn't be here," he said.

"If I didn't have my handgun, even if I would have fired a shot a quarter of a second later, the blast would have been too late. She would have been on me."

'I just thank God that I'm still here'
Lorenz said it's an experience he'll never forget.

"It's something that will stay with me for life. … It was really something that I never expected and I think I've grown from it," he said.

"I think even if I would have hit her, even a very fatal shot … she would have had enough life left in her to do me in."

He believes it would have been nearly impossible to survive an attack at such a close range.

"They were both so fast. It's unbelievable — the speed — and I just thank God that I'm still here."

Lorenz said he's grateful both he and the grizzly survived the encounter.

"The timing couldn't have been more perfect," he said. "The outcome couldn't have been more perfect as far as, you know, I wasn't touched, she wasn't wounded, she wasn't killed, her baby's OK … and I was able to capture the whole thing [on film]."

Lorenz said he has had about a dozen grizzly encounters, but a bear had never charged at him before.

"It just really shows … that their personalities are all different, just like people," he said.

"But also, it shows that they're unpredictable because they can be one way one day and totally different another day and … you just have to be as careful as you can."

puppy miss mommy scent!

I don't understand.. Have they NEVER busted a grow house before? ever?

Seriously, it looks like a weed not pot.

"The leaves are oblong-elliptical to lanceolate, 5–10 cm long and 1.5–3 cm broad, thinly to densely tomentose, green to greyish-green above and white below....
Scent: "A peppermint-scented aroma"

white on underside of leaves, their hands reeked of peppermint...

Who could ever be this stupid? Not one single cop said... wait a minute I don't think this is weed, like I've seen on t-shirts, bumberstickers, my fucking cop training.

what a saleswoman

she had me at "Even my scent is lovely" or whatever the fuck she said.



I find it hard to believe the translation:
"I assure you my junk is real"

wot? as opposed toooo...

A squirrels diet consists of nuts, seeds, and fruit. It'll eat bird eggs, bugs,..... even an animal carcass if there is no other food source available. As for an "average" dog's compared to a squirrel's brain? An average chihuahua has the size of an average squirrel's brain...approx Squirrel brain length=3cm
approx brain weight=6g
A bull mastiff has a bigger brain than a chihuahua, as for intelligence?? Jury out....
Behavior studies and not brain size determines the intelligence of a creature-Bet 10 bucks the dogs smarter (way smarter) than the squirrel.

This guy is hungry or inebriated on scent-oh and, not love, squirrels live alone, fuck everything and anything they can....sometimes they nest together when it's witch-titty cold, otherwise, they are a solo act.

This concludes your squirrel lesson for the day.

Edit: weird thing there towards the end, where it kind of lays down. I wonder what the thought process is there? Was it trying to act dead so it could jump up and scare them more?


After having raised a squirrel I can tell you that laying down flat like that is how they "Sit". My squirrel did that all the time. I would say evolution taught them that laying down makes them harder for prey to spot, while conserving energy versus sitting up on their hind legs. He must have been there a while.

Also, they are much more intelligent than people give them credit for. There are videos of dogs protecting other dogs that were hit by cars. It wasn't just because of a scent. Squirrels are as intelligent as an average dog. I would say this squirrel knew something was wrong with the other squirrel and was trying to protect him. Just like it looks.
